The Nightmare

The Nightmare

“Every night

I stare down at you

As you sleep

Ready to crawl down into your mind”

Every night

I stare down at you

As you sleep

Ready to crawl down into your mind

 

I stare down at you

Waiting, watching

Ready to crawl down into your mind

I am your worst fear

 

Waiting, watching

For the first rumbling snore

I am your worst fear

I make you whimper and cry

 

For the first rumbling snore

Marks your doom

I make you whimper and cry

Every night
